Dropping the rope

[woundedfool]

He thinks H is asking these things because I come off so happy when H sees me. He said he thinks it bothers H that I'm happy without him. Little does H know it's partially an act

Your dad is a wise man.

Yes, the acting as if is a bit of a front at first. But you slowly learn/see that you do have positives in your life that create & foster happiness.

My mind reading is that your H was expecting and wants to see/hear "you can't live without them", "your lost without them", etc.

Kind of messes with their head when they see you are strong & can manage (even flourish) without them.


Another off topic side note: it will be interesting to see the end result of the up coming holiday weekend.... the "new car" is fading from the perspective of 19girls parents, and nothing creates relationship pressure quite like a 10 hour car ride.
